MUSIC


FEATURED SONG:

So often, I think about the futures people didn't get and deserved. This is heavily prevalent in Kami and Gene's disappearance; they were so young, with their entire lives ahead of them. "Edge of the Ocean" really represents a lovely what if - a corner of the world where Kami and Gene get to live their lives to the fullest.
